Amy, Susan, David and John,

Your dad was one of best men I have ever known. Though I have never met you all I am sure that Bud is deeply in your character. My father-in-law Jack Barber and Bud would always make me laugh about their college days.
God is surely proud to have your dad beside him with Margaret.

God bless,

Tim Barden

Dear Amy,
I will so miss your dad, He was always so sweet and kind. He was one of my favorite patients ever. I did not know that his nickname was Bud. That was my dad's nickname too.God bless you all.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

I met Bud in college and we served together in The Army at Fort Gordon, Ga. We started a re-union 1999 and he and Margaret were always at the suppers. I will miss seeing them and always enjoyed our times together Until we met again, Don Clark, Tampa, Fl.

Dear Amy and Clark,

I am so sorry to hear about Mr. Greer, he always helped me out. Whenever I would sit with him over at the sawmill his face always turned rosie when he talked about his family. He loved you all.

With Deepest Sympathy,

To the Greer Family:

In your time of sorrow, may you find comfort in God's word, the Bible. James 4:8 encourages; "draw close to God, and he will draw close to you."
